This 61 km tour leads from the River Brenta through the scenic Valsugana Valley. Mountain pastures and plateaus with countless refugios await you.

On the SS 47, which leads from Trento towards Enego, the route starts at the village of Grigno. A bridge takes you first to Filippini and then on to Fontana di Selva, where the trail begins. A small road winds its way through dense forest to the Marcesina plain. This is followed by a bumpy section with a few potholes. It is worth taking a break at the typical Malga Mandrielle mountain pasture, beautifully situated and surrounded by pine trees. The wide, gravel road continues to Malga Fosetta, an oasis of peace with a tiny chapel and picnic areas in the middle of the forest. A little way back along the path, then over a tarred section, a detour leads to Rifugio Adriana Moline in a clearing with beautiful meadows. The route climbs through the hilly landscape to Selletta Mecenseffy, a stone monument surrounded by rocks and stone fields. From here you have a wonderful view of the green valleys and peaks. The route then winds downhill on a gravel road past a few farms. The well-kept Malga Galmararetta is located on the last section of the route, which leads downhill to the end of the tour and joins the SP 349. Afterwards, it is worth stopping off in beautiful Asiago.
